Ohio Politics.

With the outcome OF the Republican
convention, which is held today, the issue
for Ohio will be made up. The Republi
cans will nominste Foraker for second
term and stand by the Dow liquor law
with such changes as shall keep it abreast
with wholesome temperance sentiment
The Democrats have nominated Powell,
an cut and out administration candidate,
though there was strong opposition to
him in the convention, which was divided
between an anti administration candidate
and Congressman Foran who was advocat'
cd by the laboring element The conven.
ton called for the enactment OF license
law, aud condemned the Dow law. The
prohibitionists and working men also
have candidates SO there is little doubt Of
the election Of Foraker by a good majority.

1t is the opinion OF those who know
more about the facts that one reason why
it is possible for Mr. Harvey. the treasury
official, to successfully commit his for

clerks have been overworked IN order To
make an exceptional record for efficiency,
and that 10 consequence some OF the Gus
tomary safeguards which have prevailed in
the examination OF claims have been disre
garded. La the Office where the forgeries
occurred the clerical force was reduced

pass all the claims possible 10 order to

The discrepancy 10 one Of the papers,
which resulted ia the discovery OF the

made by the new chief Of the division but
by Republican clerk OF long experience.
The latter called the attention Of the new
chief Of division to the discrepancy in the
spelliog. aud said that 1t did not seem
right, but that with the pressure OF work
upon him be did not have time to make

chief OF division should himself make the
